another version 

This is my version of the patch. I took it from 
/usr/share/genkernel/defaults/linuxrc:312
and renamed a few variables. It works for me.

Patch is against genkernel-3.4.10.907

Add LABEL support to crypt_root, clean up UUID crypt_root patch

I have applied Christian's patch with slight modifications.
Please review and test my patch and report back.

Testing is probably easiest by emerging genkernel-99999 (five nines) which exposes the experimental branch.

if I do not hear anything in two weeks, I may close this bug.

Now int Git:
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/genkernel.git;a=commitdiff;h=b6b3dab7cda3a3ba5715124e37ecf06df84cc059

You can emerge genkernel-99999 (five nines) to give it a spin.
